There is a reference to the heraldic otter online at
http://www02.so-net.ne.jp/~saitou/cgi-bin/more.cgi?input=Otter (from "A
Glossary of Terms Used in Heraldry" by James Parker), and a picture of
a heraldic otter at http://www.pipcom.com/~thule/heraldry/c_b_swim.html

Other pictures of otters in heraldry:
http://rbrooks.dynip.com/Irish_crest.htm (in the crown on the crest)
http://www.civicheraldry.co.uk/devon.html (a demi-otter in the East
Devon District Council crest)
http://www.geocities.com/good0179/TCS5.html (a few places)

Otters are also mentioned in this article on beasts in heraldry:

As to sea otters, there are many webpages which feature pictures of
them.
